What is a Work-Based Learning (WBL) coordinator?

WBL (Work-Based Learning) coordinators are professionals who facilitate and oversee programs that connect students with real-world work experiences. They collaborate with employers, schools, and students to set up internships, apprenticeships, job shadowing, and other workplace learning opportunities. Their role includes ensuring that these experiences align with educational standards and provide valuable skills for students’ futures. They also help monitor student progress and handle administrative tasks related to work-based learning programs.
